Always be sure to check the workout schedule and Academy Blog at http://mlburbanyouthacademy.mlblogs.com/ before you plan on coming to the Academy to make sure there is an appropriate workout to attend.

BASEBALL Workout Changes:

The structure and content of our development and instruction will be more uniform and consistent in all age groups, to create a smoother transition and understanding of fundamentals for all members as they grow here at the Academy.

In an effort to simplify things, the baseball workout schedule is now a 2-sided single sheet with an overview on one side and a calendar view on the other.

The Little League field will now be referred to as the YOUTH BASEBALL FIELD.

Dates and times of workouts and age groups have changed.

Four different age (academic grade level) groups have been created together with a new workout schedule for participation.

• T-Ball – Grades K, 1^st & 2^nd (Ages 5 to 8)

• High School – Grades 9^th, 10^th, 11^th & 12^th (Ages 14 to 18)

Please refer to the schedule for workout times for each group.

 We ask that you or your child only attend workouts scheduled for their specific group. Only members selected by Academy Instructional Staff will be invited to participate in more advanced workouts. For safety reasons, your child may not be allowed to participate if they attend a workout not intended for their grade level/age group.

RSVP workouts have been discontinued.

Position specific workouts, including pitching and catching instruction, will be integrated within the schedule open workouts.
